Nothing we did in this draft would suggest that we dont need another edge rusher.
Im sure we still land one in FA.

Not a knock on this draft, I loved it!

I'd really rather Ryan Kerrigan than Melvin Ingram but whatever Veach decides to do. I think they still need an edge.

I wouldn't mind seeing them snag DJ Hayden as a nickel CB.

Maybe Gareon Conley as a potential reclamation project at CB if that ankle is healthy.

Didn't Justin get nine or ten sacks in his last season here? Then folks talked crap about "he's done" but the guy got 19 sacks for the Colts over the last two years. Too many folks take things too personally...i don't give a damn about the past...if Justin wants to return he would be welcomed by me because he would make our DL nasty and that's all that matters...PERIOD.

Ingram would be wise to basically beg the Chiefs to sign him at this point.

His value is obviously nowhere near as high as he thought and playing on a d-line consisting of Clark, Reed and Jones is going to make it much easier for him to pile up some sacks and get paid next year.

He’s also going to have a ton of pass rushing opportunities since teams will be playing from behind

We were the last team he visited right?
[Reply]

Yep.

He's the best option, and should flourish as a situational pass rusher here.

That should probably be a good sign then. They might have told him they'll sign him after the compensatory pick period ended.

Which woudl be today right?

Justin Houston hasn't signed anywhere either. Did he leave on bad terms?

I'm kinda surprised he isn't mentioned as a possible addition.

Yeah at 3PM.

Houston would be my preference. I'm guessing that bridge was burned but who knows.

He did. If I remember correctly he was one of the leaders of the terri-bad 2018 defense. He was asked to take a paycut and would not so KC cut him.

Is not wanting to take a pay cut "bad terms"?
